As per an action item [1], here is the definition of
the metric of an architectural component.
Metric of architectural component:
"is an attribute of an Architectural component that may be defined
during the configuration of the Architectural component, can be measured
during the use of the Architecture component, and whose value may be
evaluated."
Please comment.
Let us propose glossary terms to WSA WG after we have consensus within RTF.
Cheers,
